June 2026 delivered major storage and data-access enhancements with a focus on business value and reliability. Implemented a read-only IPFS storage backend with URL resolution, UI/icon support, docker-compose integration, health checks, and performance-oriented indexing for IPFS references. Added time-limited signed URLs for Google Cloud Storage to enable private blob access without public exposure, controlled via an environment flag. Introduced epoch-based filtering for /blobs (plus API/UI validation and epoch-to-slot conversion) to enable precise time-range analytics on large datasets. Improved observability with a startup runtime configuration banner and hardened deployment stability by fixing Next.js cache ownership and pinning Node.js to a known-good version. These changes jointly improve security, performance, and operator visibility while reducing risk in deployments.
